Answer:

price of pencil is 0.74 and eraser is 0.72$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, "p" represent pencils

and "e" represents erasers.

hence, according to question

13p+10e=16.75 ________(1)

and 25p+2e=19.85________(2)

Multiplying equation (2) by 5,

hence, 125p+10e=99.25________(3)

Substracting equation (3) and (1)

125p+10e-(13p+10e)=99.25-16.75

hence, 112p=82.5

p=0.74

substituting the value in equation (1),

13(0.74)+10e=16.75

9.57+10e=16.75

on solving,

e=0.72

hence, price of one pencil is 0.75$, and price of one eraser is $0.72

Angle of 74° with the ground if the foot of the latter 6.5 feet from the wall, how high on the wall is the ladder?

Pie

Tanα=h/x

h=xtanα, we are told that x=6.5ft and α=74° so

h=6.5tan74 ft

h≈22.67 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)

Complete the following proof. Prove: In an isosceles triangle, two medians are equal.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Midpoint of AB = (0 + 2a / 2 , 0 + 0 / 2) = (2a / 2 , 0 / 2) = (a,0)

x coordinate of point c = a

N = (0 + a / 2 , 0 + b / 2) = (a / 2 , b / 2)

M = ( 2a + a / 2 , 0 + b / 2) = (3a / 2 , b / 2)

MA = √(3a / 2 - 0)² + b / 2 - 0)²

= √(3a / 2 )² + (b / 2) = 9a² / 4 + b² / 4

NB = √(a / 2 - 2a)² + (b / 2 - 0 )²

= √( a / 2 - 4a / 2)² + (b / 2 - 0)²

= √(-3a / 2)² + (b / 2)² = √9a² / 4 + b² / 4

Answer part A and part B

vredina [299]

Answer: Part A: a square pyramid Part B: 84 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The shape will have a base that is a square with triangles on each of its edges that connect at a point at the top.

Part B: The amount of nylon needed is the surface area of the net. There is a square and two triangles. The square has a side length of 6 so its area will be 6*6=36 square feet. Each triangle has a base of 6 and a height of 4 so each of their areas will be $\frac{6*4}{2}=12$ square feet. Adding up the area of the 4 triangles and the square gives us 4*12+36=84 square feet.
